2、 PCR Two traceability certifications for recycled plastic bags

EN15343：2008 are standards related to plastic recycling, which are standards that the EU must implement according to CEN/CENELEC internal regulations, mainly involving plastic recycling traceability and qualification assessment and recycled content. This standard assesses the traceability of the system to calculate the recycled content in plastic products. Plastic recycling is the recycling of the same material, aiming to save resources (reduce raw materials, energy consumption), while minimizing harmful emissions to air, water and soil, and any impact on human health.

In Europe, with the increasing awareness of environmental protection, the market for recycled plastic bags is gradually expanding. EN15343：2008 Certification is the basis for many companies and consumers to choose recycled plastic bags.
